So about a month or so ago I noticed a squeek/rattle coming from the windshield where it meets the dashboard on the passenger side of my 2012 Explorer XLT. It wouldn't make the noise when your first got in the car but then after about 10 mins of driving, there it was. I took the car back to the dealer ship and this was their solution:
"Checked and found windshield flexing causing noise when body flexes. Windsheild not properly seated. Sent to bodyshop to reseal windshield. Reassembled and roadtested. All OK."
and
"R/F A-Pillar outside applique making noise. Removed and replaced R/F A-Pillar molding. Rechecked. All OK."
Long story short, the noise went away. Fast forward about another month... noise is back. Not sure what I should do here. I really don't want to keep bringing the car in just to have the problem reappear, plus it takes them a week to fix. The noise is very annoying, though. Any ideas and what I should do and/or what could be causing this problem? Thanks.
